Joe, et al,
Unfortunately, we find, time and time again, when Microsoft comes in to
tell us how good they're gonna do something, there's a catch.
Here, it remains simple to me: I can tweak the OS if I need to, and I can
tweak the apps. With a Windows solution fo rmy cluster environment, I
certainly can't tweak the OS. I'm half-way to dead in the water.
I don't think that MS is looking to get people to convert their existing
clusters from Linux to Windows. More that they are trying to address a
slightly different market than those for which tweaking the OS is
needed. That is, your style of operation and development is not in their
projected customer base (although, from a "big corporate strategy"
viewpoint, getting rid of Linux clusters does have value, viz. the
Halloween documents)
